Special Section: Doing Psychological Science Giving and Receiving Awards
Awards in the form of orders, medals, decorations, prizes, and titles are ubiquitous in monarchies and republics, private organizations, and not-for-profit and profit-oriented firms. Nevertheless, this kind of nonmaterial extrinsic incentive has been given little attention in the social sciences, including psychology. The demand for awards relies on an individual’s desire for distinction, and t...
متن کاملDoing Cognitive Science by Hand: A Tutorial on Computer Mouse-Tracking
Recently, the measurement of computer-mouse trajectories en route to choices on the screen has served as a window into the real-time dynamics of a wide range of cognitive processes. This mouse-tracking methodology is able to provide a sensitive, temporally fine-grained measure by which participants’ tentative commitments to various choice alternatives can be tracked semi-continuously over hundr...
متن کاملDoing science making art
It is a challenge to balance doing both science and art, but I attempt both because each provides unique insight into perception and cognition, often to mutual benefit. The techniques I use in visual neuroscience (psychophysics, fMRI, microelectrode recording) are different from those I use in visual art (etching, watercolor and oil paint, glass and silk), but the process is always empirical, t...
متن کاملDoing Science in Uncertain Times
A scientist living in Russia is often asked two questions: “Why haven’t you left?” and “Is it still possible to work there?” The best response to the fi rst question is, “Why should I?”—which either terminates the conversation or leads to a stimulating discussion about the fate of the world. The second question, however, deserves a serious answer. In fact, this is the question that every one of...
متن کاملDoing arithmetic by hand: hand movements during exact arithmetic reveal systematic, dynamic spatial processing.
Mathematics requires precise inferences about abstract objects inaccessible to perception. How is this possible? One proposal is that mathematical reasoning, while concerned with entirely abstract objects, nevertheless relies on neural resources specialized for interacting with the world-in other words, mathematics may be grounded in spatial or sensorimotor systems. Mental arithmetic, for insta...
